Negotiations are incredibly stressful and can bring out the worst in people. Wouldn't it be better if there were a principled way to negotiate? Wouldn't it be even better if there were a way to treat people fairly and get treated fairly in a negotiation? Split the Pie offers a new approach that does both - a field-tested method that reframes how negotiations play out. Barry Nalebuff, a professor at Yale School of Management, helps identify what's really at stake in a negotiation: the "pie." The negotiation pie is the additional value created through an agreement to work together. ![]() English | ASIN: B09RBGCKWL | 2022 | 9 hours and 23 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 258 MB Hitler, Stalin, and Mao ruled through violence, fear, and ideology. But in recent decades, a new breed of media-savvy strongmen has been redesigning authoritarian rule for a more sophisticated, globally connected world. In place of overt mass repression, rulers such as Vladimir Putin, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and Viktor Orbán control their citizens by distorting information and simulating democratic procedures. Like spin doctors in democracies, they spin the news to engineer support. Uncovering this new brand of authoritarianism, Sergei Guriev and Daniel Treisman explain the rise of such "spin dictators", describing how they emerge and operate, the new threats they pose, and how democracies should respond. ![]() English | ASIN: B09TS1V6PG | 2022 | 6 hours and 37 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 182 MB Speak Up, Dammit! is for you, if you have a hard time sharing your ideas when: You're challenged or ignored, You don't feel prepared, The stakes are high, You're the only one in the room who looks like you.

We think of transplant surgery as one of the medical wonders of the modern world. But transplant surgery is as ancient as the pyramids, with a history more surprising than we might expect. Paul Craddock takes us on a journey—from sixteenth-century skin grafting to contemporary stem cell transplants—uncovering stories of operations performed by unexpected people in unexpected places. Bringing together philosophy, science and cultural history, Spare Parts explores how transplant surgery constantly tested the boundaries between human, animal, and machine, and continues to do so today. Witty, entertaining, and at times delightfully macabre, Spare Parts shows us that the history—and future—of transplant surgery is tied up with questions about not only who we are, but also what we are, and what we might become. ![]() English | ASIN: B08S7V112F | 2022 | 16 hours and 32 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 454 MB An essential, surprising journey through the history, rituals, and landscapes of the American South—and a revelatory argument for why you must understand the South in order to understand America. We all think we know the South. Even those who have never lived there can rattle off a list of signifiers: the Civil War, Gone with the Wind, the Ku Klux Klan, plantations, football, Jim Crow, slavery. But the idiosyncrasies, dispositions, and habits of the region are stranger and more complex than much of the country tends to acknowledge. In South to America, Imani Perry shows that the meaning of American is inextricably linked with the South, and that our understanding of its history and culture is the key to understanding the nation as a whole. ![]() English | 2022 | ASIN: B09W41KDCJ | MP3 | M4B | 9h 54m | 543 MB Author: Eric Pallant | Narrator: Daniel Henning ![]() English | ASIN: B09WWYGKTB | 2022 | 7 hours and 7 minutes | MP3 | M4B | 196 MB Christopher Phillips has devoted his life to carrying the torch of Socrates and his quest to "Know Thyself." Yet upon the death of his beloved father and mentor, the originator of the burgeoning global Socrates Cafe movement had little choice but to confront the inescapable truth: that there are some things we cannot know for sure. This moving, insightful and ultimately hopeful and helpful blend of memoir and philosophical exploration begins in Phillips' native stomping grounds of the island of Nisyros, Greece, and unfurls through space and time as the author explores the connections between his immediate circumstances and the eternal wisdom of popular philosophers. ![]() English | 2015 | MP3 | M4B | ASIN: B00VEMM6JQ | Duration: 6:26 h | 175 MB Richard Belzer, George Noory, David Wayne / Narrated by L.
